THE STRIKE.
The New York strikers Pronounce their
Move Failure Plenty OF Men Found

New YORK. Feb. II.
The ordering Of engineers employed on

fronts are concerned, proven a dead letter.
A visit TO the docks this morning failed to

the brewers intended to strike proved to have

at work. They stated that last night they
had refused positively to stop work and take

The eccentric engineers have refused point
blank to obey the orders of the district as
sembly 40, Knights of Labor, to strike.

TIE DISASTER.
Latest News from the Wreck-A Father
Unable to Identity Ills Son.
WHITE RIVER JuxcrroS, Feb. |


Mulligan's evidence before the commits
sioners today showed that the truck or some
portion of it was off the track some distance
back from the broken rail and the regular
line of marks on the ties before the rall was
reached were shown to be marks OF wheels
similar to what would be made il the axle
was broken before the rail was reached.
When the commissioners examined the road
bed leading to the bridge it was found that
the tracks of the flanges upon the ties showed
that from the first place where the ties bore
marks of the wheels clear TO the bridge,
the trucks kept going further to the right,
so that when the bridge was reached the
right hand wheels must have struck OF the
side of the bridge directly frem the abnt-
ment Thus the eight inch guard timbers
which were shown to be on all the bridges of
the Central Vermont road could have been
no protection, or even any kind Of similar
device No identification of bodies has
been made today aud none of the injured
have died since Sunday. All are in a talr
way to recover.
In order to obtain the most accurate esti
mate of the number of killed or fatally in
| jured in the recent railroad disaster, the asso.
| Grated press correspondent today intervewed
Alfred L. Watson, clerk of the board of
railroad commissioners, who, in company
with ex-Gov. Pingree, chairman of thetboard,
visited the scene of the wreck as early As I
o'clock, and before a hand had been lifted
toward removing the dead. Watson ssys that
| both Pingree and himself discovered lying
upon the ice "a distinct human forms IN a
charred condition. subsequently, on the
same day six other bodies were removed
from the water and ruins, and on the follow
ing dav FIVE additional bodies were discov-
cred, making a tota of 35 passengers knDsn
to have been killed. Add to this number
Conductor Sturtevsnt and the brakeman who
soon after died, and the grand total is 81
Mr. Watson thinks the circumstances favor
the theory that some of the bodies were Gre
mated under the burning timbers of the
bridge The theory that the accident WAS
caused by a broken rail is gaining ground IN
this vicinity, but an eminent civil engineer
of Philadelphia suggests that the accident
may have resulted from defective rail-
joints or splice plates.
A c. Thayer of Chautegsy, n. Y, is at
| Hartford today in search of the remains Of
his son Herbert Thayer, who was on the
| train. but was unable to identify his sons
remains. warm rain has prevailed all day
| and should it continue for "a hours longer 1t
is feared that the new uestle work now be-
ing built to replace the burned bridge will be
swept away.
